Beaver 1967 Alaska Journal 52 18 July (cont.) took down the wind net, removed the 3 spare bars and set it back up. Steve wants to have the legs works them over. We also took the nets with us. We continued on over to Central Marsh area and changed sticky boards there and checked the emergence traps. We returned to the lab. Steve checked the flower nest along the way and the other bird (of the pair from which one was removed the previous evening) was incubating. We returned at 18/5. 2130 I helped Steve count Ipule and Pedria from can tip samples taken earlier today. Turned in after this. 19 July Planned to go into the field this afternoon. For the 1st though, I helped Steve separate out of the ipulea and pedria that were collected in cans during the week he was away. 1300 I prepared to get more sod samples. Collected all the canvas from the samples in the Burless now (See Diptera study). Tom, Dr. Fittaker and I left for line 4/4-13 at 1400. I wandered off to make feeding observations while Tom set his line and Dr. Fittaker went to Footprint Lake. Returned at 18:00 to help Tom since he saw only a few birds. We also took sod samples (16) and returned to the lab. Steve and I placed the samples in the Burless and
